...really like to see Bird get out of the funk he's in.

 

[Lillie]

I don't understand why Girardi doesn't have Hicks in the Lineup being that he has been hitting HR's like crazy. I guess his Binder told him otherwise.

Gonna be old home week for Holiday this series, he's done fine for the Yanks thus far. Going to have a well pitched game if both starters are on, looking for Tank to be the game winner. Imagine this team with Bird, Sanchez, and Judge all going full tilt boogie. I'm not big on National League Teams but I do respect the Cardinals Franchise so here's to a good series.

Wacha vs Tanaka, has a ring to it. Looking forward to seeing some of this one....

Tanaka already crapping the bed in the 1st inning.

Tanaka is just not the same pitcher we saw in ST. He's struggled but persevered until he tired
in the 7th inning. Left with runners on 2nd & 3rd and one out. Yankees hold tenuous lead 4-3..........

 

[Lillie]

Betances is not the same pitcher either and I'm getting tired of his Shit every night.

 

[cagedlion]

Leaving runners in base with less than two outs is getting tiresome. Need a drink between this
game and that Ranger contest.

 

[Lillie]

I really don't have time for Chapman's Shit. I'm trying to watch the Rangers at the same time and have to deal with his Bullshit.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

closer than it should of been imho-

 

[yankeesince59]

...the Yanx were 0-8 with RISP in Thursdays game and 0-9 with RISP last night...and somehow won both games

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Due to a rough week for the squeeze I had to take her out last night. Did see Castro tie the game prior to departing. Score checked on the phone, the local club had the local tems game. Saw the video on Quick Pitch this AM and looked like the lucky horse shoes were out aplenty last night. I think Romine has been a pretty damn good sub in there for Sanchez, seems like it takes him a while to start hitting but once started he produces, Yankees win without much production but those wins count as well.
